#9200. Mediterranean façade with contrasting palette and integrated terrace

The image showcases a cozy courtyard of a private residence with distinct Mediterranean and Californian influences. The façade of the building is executed in light tones with elegant simplicity — smooth white walls create a neutral background that beautifully contrasts with the carved wooden entrance door. The door with its geometric ornament becomes an accent element of the composition, bringing warm tones and visual complexity to the minimalist exterior.

Particularly noteworthy is the open terrace with semi-circular seating upholstered in coral fabric, protected by a striped white and brown awning. This solution is not only functional, providing shade from the sun, but also stylistically enriches the architectural composition. Windows with dark frames create a graphic accent on the light façade, emphasizing the architectural geometry.

The landscape design organically complements the architecture — lush tropical vegetation surrounds the space, creating natural privacy and visual interest. The garden path made of flat stones on the lawn provides a smooth transition between the functional areas of the property.

This project demonstrates successful use of techniques that can be applied when designing the façade of one's own home: the contrasting combination of light walls with dark window frames, an accent entrance door with decorative elements, a functional terrace with an awning for sun protection, and the integration of architecture into landscape design to create a cohesive image.
